Piagetian Cognitive Development and Achievement in Science
Sayre, Steve; Ball, Daniel W.
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 12, 2, 165-174, Apr 75
This investigation explored the relationship between scholastic grades in science in junior and senior high school students and ability of students to perform formal operational tasks. The findings indicated that at certain grade levels and in certain subject areas, public school science students who demonstrate formal operational logic tend to receive higher grades than non-formal operational students.
